When your Blog brings you an Invitation as an Author

As you all know, Zanzana is a beginner blogger and also a very inconstant one. As she wrote once to a blogging friend, she is a hungry, but very slow writer. Moreover, she does not like to write about negative things, so it becomes quite difficult for her to write something when she is busy or in a difficult moment.

Some days ago, she found a very nice message in her inbox: it was an invitation to write as an author on the Blog CyclingforRekko which she follows since its opening. She was very happy to find that, and it was totally unexpected, so she accepted immediately, and exchanged some emails with Matteo Noris, the author of this blog. Unfortunately she did not have so much time to honour the invitation until now, but she hopes to do better in the future. Zanzana and Matteo started to read each other when she published her version of Focaccia di Recco recipe: Matteo comes originally from that area, so she hopes not to have done too many mistakes 🙂

CyclingforRekko deals with Matteo‘s decision to cycle from Manchester, the city where he lives and studies, to Recco (Genova), the town he originally comes from; he will do this alone, in May-June 2013, in order to support and fund the activities of Rekko, a non-profit organization, founded by Matteo’s gradfather, which has completed many projects in Africa and in  Guatemala, where the association is still currently working. The blog, mostly in English, includes many news on Matteo’s projects, on the activities in Guatemala, and it is also open to the discussion on many subjects and to the contribuition of different authors.

Zanzana is eventually very proud of the invitation she has received, even if she is not sure about which subjects might be more useful for that blog; at the same time, she is very happy as she feels that her writings can contribute to a very nice project, making the world a little better and forgetting for a little the long hours spent at the Survival Compromise, where we work just for the profit of a few people.
